Published Date:

Visitors to Bolton Abbey are enjoying a new nature trail featuring an ancient symbol brought to life by children and young adults from Keighley.
Members of the Kids Club at Highfield Community Centre spent a day with a Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority outreach officer, painting 10 terracotta plaques which are hidden along the route in Strid Wood in the estate grounds.
The plaques, which show the face of the Green Man – the ancient symbol of life, death and rebirth – adorn the woodland as part of a summer Green Man Trail. YDNPA officer Catherine Kemp said the authority is working with Bolton Abbey Estates on the project to introduce new visitors to the National Park.
The authority also hosted a residential weekend in Kettlewell for 25 members of the Roshni Ghar Project and the Asian Women's Centre, in Keighley.
The Mosaic Partnership scheme aims to give people from minority ethnic communities experience of visiting the national parks.
